*2nd Call for sessions*


*/Inter/**/: A European Cultural Studies Conference in Sweden/** *

Call for session proposals

11-13 June 2007 the /Advanced Cultural Studies Institute of Sweden
(ACSIS)/ will organise “/Inter: A European Cultural Studies Conference
in Sweden/”, in collaboration with the European branch of the
Association for Cultural Studies (ACS). The conference is open to
advanced students and researchers committed to cultural studies, and the
number of participants is estimated to more than 300. The event will be
located at the Louis De Geer Congress & Concert Hall and Linköping
University campus in Norrköping, 1 hour 15 minutes train ride south of
Stockholm.

The conference theme “inter”, is meant to summarise a series of
challenges and opportunities for cultural research, each of which will
be in focus one of the three days: spatial /internationalisation/ with a
focus on European borders and links in political, economic, social and
cultural processes as well as in academic practice, temporal
/interepochality/ and organisational /interdisciplinarity/. This will in
turn also relate to issues of intertextuality, intermediality,
interactivity and intersectionality.

Plenary speakers: Regina Bendix, Tony Bennett, Georgina Born, Kirsten
Drotner, Gerard Delanty, Paul Gilroy, Annette Kuhn, Colin Mercer and
Gerhard Schulze.

Sessions can be organised on a topic of your choice. The conference aims
to offer a broad picture of current cultural studies in Sweden and
Europe. Session proposals are thus not confined only to the plenary
themes, but may cover any aspect of the field, from ongoing empirical
research to issues of theory, method or research policy.

Each session will last 1 hour 45 minutes and will allow for 4-5
presentations to be made. Conference organizers will encourage
participants to contribute papers to your session by a general call for
papers. Although we would like to encourage session organizers to leave
the opportunity for all scholars to submit papers to their sessions, you
could also attract presentations from within your own circle of
colleagues and send a description of your session and a listing of all
presentations to the conference organizers.

The plenaries and most parallel group sessions will be held in English,
but some group sessions may also be held in Swedish and have a national
focus.**

If you wish to organise a session please send a 150-word description of
your session to conference2007 at acsis.liu.se

The deadline for submission of proposals is November 1, 2006

For Swedish Participants: Please let us know if you wish to hold your
session in Swedish.
